Story:Aliens Versus Predator: Extinction is a real-time strategy game featuring three different species, all vying for control of the planet LV-742. Players can command an elite force of Colonial Marines, stalk their prey as a member of the Predator clan, or scurry along in packs as the acid-spitting Aliens. Gameplay involves advancing through a series of missions ranging in locale from jungles and caverns to futuristic battlefields and space colonies. Each faction offers ten types of combat units that can be upgraded over time with new attributes or equipment specific to the species. Predators, for instance, increase their number of vision modes, Aliens impregnate their victims with facehuggers, while Colonial Marines receive new weapon enhancements. As in titles like StarCraft, units range in scope from standard grunts and infantry to specialized forces and massive troop transports.Show more
One of the more unique entries in the AVP game series. Lead Marines to safety, Aliens to thrive, and Predators to glory. The game was exclusive to consoles at the time so sadly a native PC port does not exist. Maybe it could be emulated or the disk image made available for sale for use in emulators. Played this a heap on PS2 and Xbox and loved creating an army of Facehuggers to spam my enemies with.
well, honestly this is my first RTS genre playing on console PS2. I remember when this came out, I wanted so bad after I saw the trailer. Fast forward I got the game and surprisingly the best RTS that era. My brother didn't like RTS as much as I do, he's just watching me playing the whole campaign. Kinda sad they forgotten this hidden gem for remastered just like now days there's many they already remastered game exclusive it but this game just getting forgotten. If GOG released it I'm bloodyhell sure will buying it again but hoping if there's someone will remastered it and put the "Skirmish'' mode just like the rest RTS game out there.... Missing my childhood games and my hoping this game will revived it....
A fun, and very interesting game, punishingly hard on some of the levels, and very awkwardly balanced, but worthwhile to give a try for sure. the way all the factions are handled being unique was a really cool aspect.
ok i love playing this game wish you bring it back on computer i still have disk playstation 2 stoped working it so old never got referbished and i dont wann buy on amzon get game console that dont work right have to fight with amazon to take it back would realy love if you can bing this guy back ty
I played this game as a kid because I was (and still am) a huge fan of both the Alien franchise and the Predator franchise. I love the different interesting units you can use and the different mechanics for each of the 3 species you can play as.
An RTS set in the AVP universe that was WAY more fun than one would expect from a console RTS, doing every faction justice both in their tactics and resource management. I would love to be able to play it with mouse and keyboard but even if I HAD to play it exclusively with controller I would be more than happy to play this again.
This was my introduction to the Aliens,predator, AVP universe. I remember just playing it over and over and just loving it I especially liked palying as the Aliens and loved the amount of diffrent types that i've yet to see in any of the movies. I was so disapointed to find out it was a console only game and never was for PC. I hope to see it get ported to pc and come to GOG and am deffinetly glade that it seems I'm not the only one.
Yesterday i watched someone playin as Alien Faction it was fun to watch but i agree the controls are little funky/hard but if GOG would preserve this they should convert the controls to mouse/keyboard
fine tuning i would buy this game!!
I still remember those afternoons coming home from school, dropping my backpack by the door, and firing up my old Xbox 360 to play AVP: Extinction. To me, it wasn’t just another RTS—it felt like one of the most iconic, well-designed games of its kind.
My little brother and I had our own twist on it. The game wasn’t co-op, but that never stopped us. We’d set up skirmishes, crank the difficulty up to the max, and make a deal: first one to lose wins. It sounds backwards, but it kept things fun, chaotic, and surprisingly tense.
I always gravitated toward the Aliens. There was just something about building up swarms of xenomorphs and commanding them like my own personal legion. I’d lean back in my chair, grin at my brother, and declare in my best over-the-top villain voice: “Go forth, my spawn—bring me meatsies! Bwahahaha!” That line became an inside joke, something we’d repeat until we were doubled over laughing, even as our carefully built armies got shredded by the AI.
Now, me being in my late 30s and my little brother following close behind, looking back, those memories hit differently. It wasn’t just about the game—it was about the ritual of it. The screen glowing as evening crept in, the sound of us trash-talking and laughing across the room, and the little moments where losing didn’t matter because the fun was in playing together.
In my mind, AVP: Extinction isn’t just a strategy game—it’s a snapshot of childhood, a memory wrapped in laughter, brotherhood, and the simple joy of commanding pixelated chaos.

The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions.
